Multimode Efficiency interferometer We have independent loss on the modes. This is followed by an interferometer, which mixes the vacuum between the modes. The efficiency is the maximum sum of the transmissivities pj. We take the infimum of this over schemes. interferometer D. W. Berry and A. I. Lvovsky, arXiv:1010.6302 (2010).

Loss via Beam Splitters Model the loss via beam splitters. Use a vacuum input, and NO detection on one output. In terms of annihilation operators: NO detection NO detection vacuum D. W. Berry and A. I. Lvovsky, arXiv:1010.6302 (2010).

Vacuum Components interferometer . . . We can write the annihilation operators at the output as Form a matrix of commutators The efficiency is the sum of the k maximum eigenvalues. interferometer . . . D. W. Berry and A. I. Lvovsky, arXiv:1010.6302 (2010).

Method of Proof measurement X U(N) . . . Each vacuum mode contributes to each output mode. We can relabel the vacuum modes so they contribute to the output modes in a triangular way. A further interferometer, X, diagonalises the vacuum modes. measurement X U(N) . . . D. W. Berry and A. I. Lvovsky, arXiv:1010.6302 (2010).

Conclusions References We have defined new measures of efficiency of sources, for both the single-mode and multimode cases. These quantify the amount of vacuum in a state, which cannot be removed using linear optical processing. This proves conjectures from earlier work, as well as ruling out catalytic improvement of photon sources. D. W. Berry and A. I. Lvovsky, arXiv:1010.6302 (2010). D. W. Berry and A. I. Lvovsky, Phys.
